JODI: Unittitled Gamrs, SOD

 
 
SOD is a computer game created bu Dirk Paesmans and Joan Heemskerk in 1999. The main features of the game is only contain black white and grey as main colour. The game environment is focus on the wall that use geometric shapes and patterns. So it makes the gamer can enjoy different aspect of the environment in a visual space and change the gaming experiences for them.

I think that game is an art, it is because the elements of the games only contains simple geometric shapes with contrast colour that appears in the whole environment. It is easy make the gamer to feel lost. It different for the general computer games that have full colour and details elements. Besides, when the gamer move to different area, it not just have visual spaces changes, the game only have basic sound effect and it don't have any complete words/sentence for the instructions. It randomly use the English alphabet to represent. So it don't like the general computer games that we always play.

  2. Ariel Lin: The description of the game is very clear and distinctive. I am not familiar with the characteristics of this game but I can imagine how it works and other key features, which is what I apperciate your work. However, I believe it would be nicer to share more of your comment on whether this is art or not. For example, how do you explain it is an art by talking about the sound effect? It would be great to explain further.
